The Entitled: A Guide to Titles

This guide covers all the titles in WoW from the serious to the silly, organized by topic and linked to their achievement and basic source details.

Account-Wide Changes

In Mists of Pandaria, many titles became account-wide, meaning alts can use titles they haven't individually earned as long as they're at the minimum level it could be acquired at. For example, a level 80 alt could wear <Name>, Death's Demise if another character on the account earned it.

The other major change was account-wide progress on meta-achievements like What a Long, Strange Trip It's Been. Players can work on holiday, PvP, and raid meta-achievements across characters now, instead of repeating the achievements on any character that needed the rewards.

Dungeons, Raids, and other Challenges

General Bosses

<Name> the Patient is given for completing Looking For Many, pugging with 50 random players to complete heroic dungeons. Both Wrath and Cata heroic dungeons count towards this. If you pug 50 more, you'll get Perky Pug.

<Name> Jenkins is given for completing Leeeeeeeeeeeeeroy!, destroying 50 rookery whelps in 15 seconds. To get to the Rookery, you'll need to zone into UBRS, turn to the left, and kill two rooms of orcs as well as Pyroguard Emberseer. This will unlock the Rookery--be careful not to aggro too many at once if you are at low-level.

<Name> the Kingslayer is awarded to players who have defeated the Lich King on either 10 or 25 player mode in Icecrown Citadel. It's a great lore-filled title and easy to pug, especially if you have some friends wanting to finish a Shadowmourne for vanity.

Loremaster <Name> is awarded for completing The Loremaster, which in turn requires you to complete numerous quests in every zone for vanilla, BC, Wrath, and Cataclysm content. Completing the required number of quests for each zone awards you an achievement for easier tracking. Upon total completion, you'll also receive Loremaster's Colors. To track your quest progress, check out our quest tracking feature.

Shado-Master <Name> is awarded for completing a variety of achievements (The Shado-Master) tied to the Shado-Pan faction. Many of these achievements are tied to dailies, but you will also need to achieve Shado-Pan Monastery: Gold. Progress is not account-wide, so the character that achieves the Gold run needs to be the same character you complete dailies on.

Mists of Pandaria added the Seeker of Knowledge title for players who turned in pristine versions of every common-quality artifact from Pandaria. This is a quite time-consuming achievement as pristine solves are a very low chance. For more details on Archaeology, check out our profession guide

<Name>, Avenger of Hyjal is rewarded for completing Avengers of Hyjal, hitting exalted with the Avengers of Hyjal. This faction only grants reputation from Firelands boss and trash kills (until Honored). Reputation rewards include ilvl 378 and ilvl 391 epics.

<Name> of the Ashen Verdict is rewarded for completing The Ashen Verdict, hitting exalted with the Ashen Verdict. Reputation can be gained by killing trash and bosses in Icecrown Citadel and players can purchase epic rings based on their reputation.

Legion

Holidays

Each world holiday has a meta-achievement that grants a special title. Most titles require every holiday-related achievement, so we'll point out the extra achievements that don't count. These titles may be common, but they're also pretty fun and festive. Keep in mind that these meta-achievements all have account-wide progress, so you can get them done across alts.

Like the tier 7 Immortal counterparts, Champion of Ulduar and Conqueror of Ulduar were removed from the game and turned into a Feat of Strength. Obtaining these titles required players to one-shot each Ulduar boss without any deaths. It did not require players to one-shot every boss in the same raid lockout, or to defeat the bosses on a specific difficulty, so this was seen as easier than the Tier 7 immortal achievements.

Grand Crusader <Name> was awarded to players who participated in the realm first kill of Anub'Arak with 50 attempts remaining: Realm First! Grand Crusader. In addition, the attempts-based system for tier 9 was made obsolete and into a Feat of Strength in Cataclysm.

Scarab Lord <Name> was a title given to players who completed the quests in Veteran of the Shifting Sands 12 hours after the opening of the AQ gates in vanilla. Back in Wrath on EU servers, some players got the title by opening the gates on a new server, but now the questline has been removed.

Vanquisher <Name> is given to players that participate in the yearly Arena Tournament Realm who rank in the top 1000 after the first qualifier. This title will be given to all characters above level 71 on live.

is rewarded to players that link their Twitch/Battle.net accounts and then watch special Arena Championships.

Several Rated Battleground titles were retired: / for ending a PvP season in the top 35% of the rated battleground ladder.

/ for ending a PvP season in the top 10% of the rated battleground ladder.

/ for ending a PvP season in the top 3% of the rated battleground ladder.

At the end of each PvP season, the top players get a special seasonal Gladiator title that nobody else can ever obtain.

Solo Challenges

Brawler <Name> is rewarded to players who hit Rank 8 (out of 10) in Brawler's Guild. To learn more about the Brawler's Guild, check out our event guide. This content is removed at the start of BFA but will return in Patch 8.1.5.

is a reward for completing Field Medic - farm areas of Legion for quest drops which ask you to heal different adventurers.

The Paragons of the Klaxxi encounter in Siege of Orgrimmar has nine possible temporarily titles. Each Paragon has a special spell that can be looted, and the player who loots it gets a title for an hour. Different roles can pick up select buffs:

Unimplemented

In the Wrath beta, realm firsts for races, classes, and professions had titles linked to them. While the achievements were acquired by players, the related titles were removed at live, but one surprising day in the middle of tier 9, some players found they had temporary access to most of these titles!

Great list! I always thought it kinda funny that gender specific Titles such as Matron/Patron would change if you're in wearing a costume of the opposite gender for a quest. So Instead of Matron Jessi it would change to Patron Jessi.

Comment by Chumpacabra

I was all but certain that the Realm First level 80 Druid title was slated to be "Archdruid" and while I realize this is kind of a moot point, I'm curious to know if anyone can site any source for "of The Emerald Dream"?

Comment by Shalaeir

What lvl does an alt have to be to equip the title Twilight Vanquisher.

Comment by jeanluc09

how would i go about to get the title (name) indestructible. i've been looking at online for quite some time now and there is no information about this title anywhere.

Comment by Deanscream

Please add a "the Great" title for collecting all available titles. Thank you.

Under Siege of Orgrimmar:

Garrosh Hellscream in Siege of Orgrimmar has several titles associated with him. For killing him on Normal difficulty, Alliance players get <Name>, Conqueror of Orgrimmar and Horde players get <Name>, Liberator of Orgrimmar. For killing him on Heroic difficulty, players get <Name>, Hellscream's Downfall.

This should read instead:

Garrosh Hellscream in Siege of Orgrimmar has several titles associated with him. For killing him on Heroic or Mythic difficulty, Alliance players get <Name>, Conqueror of Orgrimmar and Horde players get <Name>, Liberator of Orgrimmar. For killing him on Mythic difficulty, players get <Name>, Hellscream's Downfall.

Awesome guide :)

I'm only a bit confused about this part:

"All 12 faction cities have titles associated with them--reputation can be gained via tabards, the Argent TourNament, or questing."
